Advantage-2 utilizes a number of support clamps to maintain the maximum rigidity of the workpiece. Carbide tools last longer if there is as little vibration as possible.

CNC Beam Drill Lines are among the most economical CNC beam drill lines available. They allow fabricators to win more work and earn more margin.

Voortman machinery is the worldwide leader in structural steel fabrication technology. Voortman machines provide steel fabricators with an advantage in the steel sector and allow them to maximize tonnage. Advantage-2 CNC beam drill is the core of any structural-steel fabrication shop. This machine is the heart of it all. It can drill endless carbide holes at high speeds, with multiple spindles, and at high speed. Advantage-2 is the most productive drill line in the steel sector. This drill line supports shops over the long term thanks to its heavy steel frame. The Advantage-2 is able to run profiles from one end to the other without any stops in production thanks to its roller feed design for the outfeed and infeed. Many fabricators around the globe use their Advantage-2s every year to make hundreds of thousands of tons steel.

“..Since purchasing our CNC Beam Drill Line about four months ago, we have drilled approximately 25,000 holes. It used to take us approximately 5 minutes to lay out and drill each hole. Now it takes us approx. 30 seconds per hole … a savings of 1875 man hours in 4 months. In our shop that equals about $84,375! As you can see this machine will pay for itself in less than one year. Not only is it speeding up our production, it is freeing up floor space for additional jobs..”

Z-Reader Probe – The Z-Reader is a device for mapping the location of the surface. It can be controlled manually & programmatically. The option is NOT active while cutting & is retracted out of harm’s way. It can be triggered to verify the surface at every pierce before the cutting process starts, or it could be used to drive surface mapping of the whole part before cutting starts. It begins with initialization or zeroing of the device to the surface at the beginning of a program and then accumulates or tracks the difference from that zeroing effort.

Programming of the CNC Beam Drill Line is very simple even when done manually. The machine programming software is Peddimat and most operators can learn how to program most parts in less than an hour. Of course practice makes perfect. However the best way to program the machine is to import parts directly from a CAD drawing preferably done in some 3-D modeling software such as Tekla Structures, SDS/2, ProSteel 3D, StruMis etc. These files import directly into the machine and the operator merely selects the part to be processed and hits the Cycle Start button.

GSS Machinery will provide you with as many options as you need when drilling with your CNC Beam Drill Line.

Frequently Asked Questions

The hole size should not exceed 38mm (1.25 in.). The beam depth should not exceed one-tenth of the hole diameter, whichever is less, with the exception being 25mm (1 in.).

Beam can support strain and pressure, while bars can maintain pressure (intended to take pressure). The Rods/Bars refer to any part that is exposed to the hub (Tensile/Compressive but no Transverse/Torsional load) Loads, as it were.

The H beam's cross section is more robust than that of the I beam. This means it can support a heavier load. The cross section of the H beam, on the other hand, can only bear direct load and tensile. However, it cannot resist twisting due to its narrow cross section. It can only bear force in one direction.

Drill blowout can be prevented by attaching a scrap of wood to the backside the piece that you are drilling on. When you drill the whole, wood that would have otherwise "blown out", hits the scrap wood instead and stays in place.

You will need at least 4-2x16 or 8x16 wood beams to span 20 feet. A 4 nailed 2x16, 4-2x16, or 8x16 wood beam will allow you to span 20 feet.
